2015 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Bel-Air, Domaine Taupenot-Merme

From the only Premier cru to touch Chambertin or Clos de Bèze, sitting on the top of the hill just below the wood, this is very impressive. Romain is adamant that the terroir is just the same as Grand Cru Ruchottes-Chambertin, and it certainly has the complexity and power of the highest quality.
